[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Based on our suburban public school three years in a row

At most 1% of kids get into a top private. Here are some stats

Rank #3 - White female. Deferred from Stanford. Got into Brown and Duke. Went to state flagship

Rank #2 - Asian female, Applied ED to Penn, went to Penn

Rank #1 - Asian Male. Only got into Cornell and Dartmouth. Went to Dartmouth

Anecdotally, only URM's or diversity cases in our school make it to HYPSM

End of Story. [/quote]

I guess you can keep hating on minorities,  but the reality is that these schools are [b]still majority white[/b],  with a national demographic that is now nearly not for that cohort.  I have no idea what's going on with your school,  but it's not the case that white kids are locked out.  Not remotely true.  [/quote]

Incorrect.  Whites comprise less than 50% of the student body at most of the ivies.  White students are down to 36% of undergrads at Stanford. [/quote]

URMs are less than 25% of the Stanford class according to the latest common data set.[/quote]

So what?  The issue was the percent of white students.[/quote]
